Burhanpur is a very ancient historic city on the Central Railway between
Khandwa and Bhusawal junctions. Burhanpur and the nearby Asirgarh (fort) used to
provide hospitality to Hindu royals proceeding north or south on pilgrimage,
weddings or military expeditions. Barhanpur has many magnificent mansions which
are currently being described as mosques and tombs of alien Islamic invaders.
This building is one such ancient Hindu royal palace captured by the Moghuls.
Mumtaz died here during her 14th delivery around 1630 A.D. while she
and Shahjahan were camping here. She is said to be buried in a Hindu pavilion in
front of this palace.

As stated at the beginning of this presentation, in case you did not read
it, the captions above
the Taj Mahal photos are kept the way they were found in the album, so the
style of English and the explanations are kept the same. I (Stephen Knapp) did not write these
captions, though many people think I did.
